i have been looking to get a new headphone or headset to use for FPS/MMORPG gaming and listening to music on occasion. I know that if I went for a pair of headphones, which i have seen multiple times be the preferred option, that I would need a modmic. I am looking for headphones that are over ear.
i have so far looked at:
headsets
Steelseries 9H (110 USD)
Sennheiser PC 350 SE (discontinued), I found it for about 150 USD on amazon.
headphones
Audio Technica ATH - AD700X (130 USD)
Audio Technica ATH - MTH40X (99 USD)
AKG Pro Audio K271 MKII (110 USD)
Sennheiser HD 518 (80 USD)
Sennheiser HD 380 PRO (105 USD)
I will admit that i do not have much along the lines of experience with headphones and headsets. I came here hoping for some help finding and deciding on what headphones or headsets I should try. If there is a big performance increase when i buy a 150 USD dollar headphone, I would probably be willing to get it and then a modmic later. Thanks in advance for the help.
(Also, the reason why i stated that it was 150 for the 350 SE is because that is the cheapest authorized retailer, and Sennheiser's warranty states that it has to be from an authorized retailer or else the warranty is void.)
